FADER PREMIERE

Swedish underground institution The Skull Defekts is the rare avant-garde rock group that boasts three vocalists: founding members Joachim Nordwall and Daniel Fagerstroem as well as former Lungfish frontman and spoken-sung poetry master Daniel Higgs, who became the band's de facto spiritual figurehead around the time of their first Thrill Jockey album, Peer Amid. Now, the five-piece is readying their second full-length for the Chicago label, evocatively titled Dances in Dreams of the Known Unknown and due out on April 8th. Here's the first song from the release, "It Started with the Light," featuring mantric vocals from Daniel Fagerström and some pretty intrepid guitar hooks. Pre-order the album here, and read the tracklist below.
